Never staying in on place for too long acts as a cultural filter, allowing for personal interpolation in regards to the artist's place among the environments and communities he has inhabited over time. With direct influences from high brow socialites, counter culture lifestyle scenes, and streetwise social webs, to internet meme circles and rural tomfoolery, the work represents an unashamed reflection of the complexity that comes with being human and the absurdity that complexity births. the crossroad of ever changing circles and homey comfort found during isolation results in meditative textures, self-indulgent representation, and a yearning for relatability.
